Introducing Sharon B Fuller Artist
Natural settings bring me joy and I bring that joy and energy into my art. I paint in watercolor and acrylic and combine representational and abstract imagery. I love the luminosity of watercolor. Using acrylic and mixed media allow me to show texture and use many layers.
The issue of climate change is on my mind in a series of paintings. Protecting while using the natural landscape is an example of a path forward and that is a guiding principle of National Parks. Most in my 'National Parks' series are views of Grand Canyon, Zion, Bryce Canyon and several places in Alaska.
In a world of multiples and copies, I offer only unique artworks made with the best quality materials by my own hand. You can see the brushstrokes and textures.

On Exhibit: Nancy Johns Gallery in Windsor, Ontario
My largest painting to date and my first to be on view in Canada, 'Leafy Interplay' is on exhibit now. The shadow of the car with the leaf patterning captured my attention and I wanted to interpret it in paint. It made me wonder where nature ends - where is the boundary between 'nature' and not nature? Humans tend to think of ourselves as separate from nature, which is out there somewhere. Yet we are animals and anything we create is made from elements of the earth. I don't necessarily think of a car as part of nature but I am not sure where the boundary should be. Something I pondered while I was working on this. Painting a night scene seems to add to the mystery.
Every year, the Nancy Johns Gallery has a size show and this year the pieces are all 30 x 30 inches in size. This was a technical challenge to paint due to the physical size and trying to get the shadow to look as I wanted. I continued the painting on the borders of the wood panel so it is really more like a 34 x 34 inch size. On view now through October 3rd at 4755 Wyandotte Street E. Windsor. Reception September 19th 6-9 pm.
